Wayfarer's Rest
Located at the eastern edge of the Kleinius Vale, about 55km inland from the west coast of Thorast, Wayfarer's Rest is a moderate-sized walled town which is home to approx. 5000 humanoids (mostly Humans and Dwarves but some Tieflings and Gnomes may also be found there).
The town is just 8km north of Shadowfell Keep, an Imperial Army fort and so is well used to supplying the fort's needs, both in terms of the legal and the dubious. As such the town has a large number of taverns and inns to accomodate off-duty soldiers, as well as a good selection of brothels, armourers, weaponsmiths and various places to gamble away what little pay they have. For the intellectual there is also a small library and even an outpost of The Cerulean Chancery.
Among the more notable taverns are
- The Wayfarer's Rest - the largest and easily the best inn in town. It has a suite of clean rooms, serves clean food and can obtain clean women (or men) on request. It is also one of the more expensive inns though.
- The Dog and Abused Duck - notable for it's x-rated signage. a great place to go and get involved in a fight. Rooms are sparse and furniture is often broken.
- The Naughty Fairy - an inn for the "gentler" male clientele. Nicely decorated and a good selection of wines. Many of it's customers prefer to wear leather, the tighter the better.
- The Burning Man - Run by "old man Constable", a Tiefling who isn't particularly old. Constable is a master of the 'bastard sword' and doesn't take kindly to people trying to set fire to his inn. Otherwise a 'midle-of-the range' tavern.
